I said if all the bits were the same the JPEGs would be the same. The bits are different. So what's your point?TimeSeeker wrote: ↑Sun Nov 25, 2018 8:27 pm And you would be wrong. Here are the SHA512 checksums for each file.

You are still missing the point. Mathematical equations are propositions.
1 = 1 is a proposition, not an evaluation.
∞ + 1 = ∞ is a PROPOSITION, not an evaluation.
There are two ways to assert its "truth" or "falsity".
You can either derive it as a theorem from previous axioms OR you can consider it as axiomatic and then see what happens. Whether it unifies with the rest of mathematics is neither here nor there. Maybe it doesn't. So what ? If using ∞/∞ = 2 in your equation makes it agree with experiment then who cares?
Yes, you have tossed the law of non-contradiction out. But your equation works so HEY! Use it as it is. Then figure out how to fix it later.
Which is exactly what QM did: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renormalization
You can't derive ∞ + 1 = ∞ as a valid theorem because it implies 1 = 0
You can't use ∞ + 1 = ∞ as an axiom because it immediately leads to 1 = 0
This is starting to beg belief. In my opinion you are defending the indefensible. How can you defend 1 = 0 ?
QM uses calculus IE Potential Infinity which I don't have an issue with. It's actual infinity (from set theory) that does not exist.
